The word order is pretty flexible but still follows a more or less established order, i.e. you probably will not go wrong if you put noun first, predicate after it and all the objects afterwards. This is for affirmative sentences. For the questions, you put the thing of which you ask first and everything else after it. E.g.:

Маша обычно гуляет в парке.
Где Маша обычно гуляет? (в парке)
Кто обычно гуляет в парке? (Маша)
Что Маша обычно делает в парке? (гуляет)
